Not me--I <em>love</em> chocolate--but I once read a funny blog post about the writer's attempts to convince people she didn't like chocolate. And then, years after reading that, it turns out my nephew doesn't like chocolate either. I probably wouldn't have believed him if I hadn't read that blog post first!Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11106962533729909868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-27575800445771900332012-05-15T21:15:23.733-04:002012-05-15T21:15:23.733-04:00True confessions indeed! This is hilarious. Oh, ...True confessions indeed! This is hilarious. Oh, how much you miss by! And yet how much you SAVE (as in money and space in your garden!) by not having to buy or grow lots of tomatoes. <br /><br />I'm with you on the cream of wheat, though. LOVE it, love it, love it!<br /><br />I only started eating fish in my 30s. I always hated it before then, but for some reason got over it and now I love it. Sushi too. :)Aimeehttp://www.redgardenclogs.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-31560036688074262302012-05-14T10:35:54.131-04:002012-05-14T10:35:54.131-04:00I eat no fresh tomatoes.

So yes, I'd love it if you shared your recipe!<br /><br /><b>Grumpy ~ </b>You're such a smart man!<br /><br /><b>Alison ~ </b>YES! I LOVE olives! I have been known to sit and eat a jar of green olives as a snack. :-) I like black ones too, but am much less likely to eat them by themselves. I love them on my Subway sandwich! As far as the thin thing goes, I'm told I must have a high metabolism, because even though I'm a picky eater, the things I like are mostly carbohydrates and high in calorie. Just luck, really.<br /><br /><b>spurge ~ </b>No, I'm very serious! I don't like raw tomatoes. I hate the taste of them and the texture is rather gross, too, although I think maybe I could overcome that if they tasted good. But they don't. :-p<br /><br /><b>Cindy ~ </b>No wonder we get along so well! ;-) I can't say that I've ever eaten pasta with ketchup on it, but I do eat it with just butter and salt and prefer it that way. I like tomato products and tomatoes in chili and vegetable soup. Just DON'T force me to eat them raw and cold!<br /><br /><b>Jennah ~ </b>Oh yeah, I'm a picky eater all right. I detest peppers of all kinds. *GAG* And don't anyone tell me to just pick them out because they impart flavor to whatever they touch and I can still taste them. I hate peppers even more than I hate raw tomatoes!<br /><br /><b>Susan ~ </b>I have a son-in-law that doesn't like fruit either. He doesn't like strawberries! See, I can't imagine anyone not liking strawberries. I love them, seeds and all! I'd prefer that they didn't have seeds, but they don't bug me. Raspberries taste divine, but those seeds drive me crazy, although I don't find them to be gross and I'll eat raspberries all day long if I could.<br /><br /><b>ConnieB ~ </b>I get you! I really do!

I like ketchup, spaghetti sauce and even salsa but fresh off the vine? NO Way!! I grow them for my parents only.

(And I LOVE cream of wheat with honey and cinnamon!)<br /><br />I don't eat meat (only a little), onions, or peppers. Those are honestly pretty much my only 3 NOs, and people call me a picky eater.

I'll grow them but don't make me eat them. <br /><br />My tastes are like yours: can't stand fresh tomatoes; LOVE Malt-o-Meal (same as Cream o' Wheat); hate cooked spinach; can't stand coffee or tea; and Hubby thinks I am beyond bizarre because I sometimes like to eat pasta with ketchup on it. Never had braunschweiger but I'd probably like it with ketchup too. lol<br /><br />Cindy at Rosehaven CottageCindy Garber Iversonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15543940998038589239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-11452168048834704882012-05-12T14:27:36.632-04:002012-05-12T14:27:36.632-04:00You really had me laughing there!

(I can see not liking supermarket "tomatoes." And Cherokee Purple is pretty bland, as far as heirlooms go. But it's mind-boggling to me that someone can't find at least ONE heirloom that they like, sliced fresh and sprinkled with salt!)
